Miller started the car from 11th on the GT class grid and drove the
race's opening stint before giving way to Ballou for one stint. Lally
then took over and drove the car into the lead before turning it over to
Westbrook shortly after the five-hour mark. Rainy--but not completely
wet--conditions wreaked a bit of havoc on the team's strategy, as
Westbrook made two pit stops prior to the six-hour mark to switch from
dry tires onto rain tires before switching back to dry tires just as the
one-quarter mark was reached. As a result, the No. 66 machine was one lap
down, but well within sight of the class leader.

"Nobody told me we were leading," said Lally following his stint.
"We've had a couple of radio issues here and there. I can hear
the guys, but I don't get any radio interference until they hit the
button. Then, I hear them and somebody else. Knock on wood, the car is
pretty darn good. These guys have been performing well here in the pits
for us, and our car has been holding together. I'm looking forward to
more. I want more. I want to win this thing."

"It was starting to get a little dark, so it's harder to see out
the windshield, but the car is running really good," Ballou
commented. "Traffic is pretty hectic. The DPs are getting a little
aggressive on the way that they pass us. Overall, it really went
smoothly. The car is running great and we're feeling good."

The No. 64 J Lowe Racing/TRG Globus/Adopt A Pig/CRG/Maxter/Rotax/MBA
Group/F1 Air/SRS/NMT Porsche GT3 of Jim Lowe, Jim Pace, Tim Sugden,
R J Valentine and Johannes van Overbeek was also one lap down in seventh
place at the six-hour mark. Van Overbeek started the car from 29th on the
grid but quickly worked his way forward and into the top 10. Van Overbeek
turned the car over to Pace, followed by Lowe and then Sugden. Valentine
had not driven in the first quarter of the race.

The No. 67 Monster Cable Need for Speed Porsche GT3 of Spencer Pumpelly,
Tim George Jr., Emmanuel Collard, Romain Dumas and Bryan Sellers was one
position behind the No. 64 in eighth place after six hours, but was two
laps behind the leaders owing to the same difficulties with weather
conditions.

Pumpelly started the car from third on the grid and ran comfortably
inside the class top five before turning the car over to Collard, who
found his way to the lead. Collard then gave way to George in the
race's third hour before Dumas took over for a double stint. Sellers
was driving at the one-quarter distance.

"For the moment, it's quite good," said Collard following his
stint. "The car is fine. It's very difficult in traffic, because
there are too many cars at the moment, so you have to be really careful.
You have to be watching all the time in the mirror for the DP cars.
Hopefully, we can stay like this and we'll see what happens tomorrow
morning."

Ed Zabinski was running 16th after six hours in the No. 62 Burtin
Engineering/Foametix/Westfund.com Porsche GT3 he is sharing with Jack
Baldwin, Claudio Burtin, Martin Ragginger and Scott Tucker. Ragginger
started the car and ran inside the top 10 throughout his stint before
turning the car over to Burtin.

"Everything went good," Burtin said after his stint. "The car
is running fine. The tires, brakes, everything is great right now.
There's a long time to go."

Burtin then gave way to Jack Baldwin who drove two-and-a-half hours
before handing over the controls to Tucker for a brief stint before the
rains began to intensify. Tucker turned the car back over to Baldwin, who
handed off to Zabinski when the team opted to switch back to slicks just
before the six-hour mark. The car was four laps down.

"The car is fine," Baldwin said. "We're doing really good
in the box there. We need 53s and 54s and that's the pace we're
running. The car is fine. We've had really no issues other than I
couldn't turn one of the alarms off. The alarm switch fell out of the
steering wheel, so this red light is flashing in my eyes the whole time,
so that's nice. Other than that, it's fine. I went a long time,
two-and-a-half hours. I feel good, and the car is pretty easy to drive.
It's good. It's fine."

While three of the TRG Porsches were in the top 10 after six hours, three
others spent significant time in the garage area.

The first to go "behind the wall" was the No. 68 ACG
Motorsports/Cohen Financial/Thomas Weisel Partners/Muffin Top Racing
Porsche GT3 of John Mayes, Michael Auriemma, Michael Gomez, Brent Milner
and Scott Schroeder. Milner ran afoul of another competitor just 42
minutes into the race, sending the car to the garage for repairs to its
radiator and front splitter. The car was running 33rd in class, 25 laps
behind the leader.

"I had a slow Mustang that got around me when the DPs passed, so I
followed him through on the banking coming into the bus stop," Mayes
explained. "I thought I would just pop out, knowing he would brake
early. He broke early; I broke about the two-and-a-half, and got full
lock-up on the left side. Rather than trying to drive it through, I let
the brakes off so I could drive it straight and went right through the
grass. I punctured a radiator and ripped off the splitter in the process.
That set us back."

One hour and 10 minutes into the race, Hima Maher drove the No. 63 The
DigiTrust Group/Mike Wiegele Helicopter Skiing/Impremedia/Reigel
Tuning/Adam's Polishes/La Vi Porsche GT3 to the garage with gearbox
problems. The car--which Maher is sharing with Duncan Ende, Pierre
Borque and Ron Yarab Jr.--remained in the garage at the six-hour mark.
It was credited with 41st in the GT class.

Just prior to the two-hour mark, the No. 65 Lavender Bridal Salon Porsche
GT3 being driven at the time by Jason Daskalos also went to the garage
for radiator repairs. However, the car did return to competition after
repairs and co-drivers Daskalos, Tom Atherton, Russ Oasis and Jim Stout
was running 30th in class after six hours. The No. 65 was 23 laps behind
the class leader.
